Phosphaguanidines as Scaffolds for Multimetallic Complexes Containing Metal-Functionalized Phosphines

Phospha(III)guanidines, R2PC{NR}{NHR}, have been used to synthesize multimetallic compounds containing combinations of aluminum with platinum or copper, in which the main-group metal is N,N-bound by an amidinate moiety, thereby generating a metal-functionalized phosphine that bonds to the transition metal through phosphorus
